Abstract
1H-Perfluoroalkanes are prepared by sodium methoxide reduction of 1-io doperfluoroalkanes. The experimental evidence indicates that the react ion proceeds either through a radical or a thermal mechanism. We have found that a high yield of 1H-perfluoroalkanes at complete conversion can be accomplished at atmospheric pressure using this technology.
